Samuel Rodriguez’s Podcast

Relationship Weekend at New Season Church was real, raw, and transformational. In this powerful message, Samuel Rodriguez delivers a clear and biblical rubric for righteous relationships whether you are single, dating, or married. With humor, truth, and bold conviction, he unpacks what it truly means to pursue covenant over chemistry and alignment over attraction. In this episode you will discover • Why who you marry is the most important decision after salvation • Why marriage magnifies what dating tolerated • How your marriage preaches the Gospel without a microphone • The difference between culture driven relationships and Christ centered covenant • Why couples who pray together thrive spiritually and even neurologically From discernment in dating to forgiveness in marriage, this message confronts the lies that sabotage relationships and declares God’s design over your future. If you are single you will gain clarity. If you are dating you will gain discernment. If you are married you will gain alignment. Your vertical relationship with Christ shapes your horizontal relationships. When two people walk in holiness healing humility and honor they do not just survive they thrive. This is more than relationship advice. It is a covenant declaration.

In this powerful and faith-building episode, we unpack a simple football lesson that reveals a profound biblical truth: the game is won when you begin with the Word. Just like every game starts with a kickoff, victory in life begins when you start your day, your decisions, and every season of your life grounded in God’s Word. Before the phone, before the emails, before social media — begin with the Word. Because when you begin with the Word, you end in victory. Rooted in John 1 and Luke 1:37, this message reminds us that the Word of God never fails — not in crisis, not in uncertainty, not in struggle, and not even in our weakest moments. Through powerful football analogies, this episode reveals: Why believers are called to play offense, not defense How God sometimes places you in “shotgun” — separation for preparation, not punishment The importance of spiritual protection, renewing your mind, and holding the Word close to your heart How to overcome life’s tackles without losing possession of your purpose Why your season of delay may actually be divine alignment How to hear God clearly and move forward with confidence The power of praise, faith, and obedience to outmaneuver the enemy Why 2026 is a year of forward progress, recovery, and victory You will be encouraged to go deeper in God’s Word, guard your mind, surround yourself with faith-filled believers, and trust that even when life tackles you, if you hold on to the Word, you will rise again. This episode is a call to step onto the field, stop playing defense, and advance with bold faith — because when you begin with the Word, run with the Word, and live by the Word… the Word wins.

In this powerful message, Pastor Sam lays the foundation for why your connection to the Church determines the strength of every other relationship in your life. In this sermon, you’ll discover: Why your vertical relationship with God produces horizontal consequences How your atmosphere can either align with or sabotage your anointing Why the Church of Jesus Christ is unstoppable—and what that means for you What Jesus really meant by “the gates of hell will not prevail” Why the Church is meant to live on offense, not defense How submitting to Christ’s authority brings clarity, order, and victory Why Christianity was never meant to be lived alone Empires fall. Cultures shift. Systems reset. But the Church of Jesus Christ is still alive—and if you’re part of it, so are you. This message will challenge how you see the Church, reshape how you see yourself, and ignite bold faith to declare victory right in front of hell’s gates. 🎧 Listen now and step into alignment.

Better is one day in God’s presence than a thousand anywhere else. In this powerful message from Psalm 84:10–11, Pastor Sam reveals the redemptive story behind the Sons of Korah—descendants of rebellion who became authors of worship. Though Korah’s rebellion in Numbers 16 brought judgment, God’s grace redeemed the next generation, proving that past failure does not disqualify future worship. This sermon declares that God can judge rebellion without canceling destiny, confront sin without destroying the future, and discipline one generation without disqualifying the next. You’ll discover that redemption positions you closer than rebellion ever pushed you away, that broken legacies can become worshiping bloodlines, and that God does not need permission to bless, favor, or use your life. Rooted in Psalm 84, this message prophesies that 2026 will be a year defined by the presence of God, where good things come to those who dwell with Him, pursue righteousness, and live redeemed. Better is one day in His courts—and good things are coming your way.

2026 is not just another year. It is The Year of His Glory. The Year of No More Veils. Built on Psalm 84:11 (NLT) — “He gives us grace and glory, and the Lord will withhold no good thing…” — this message shifts our focus from simply experiencing God’s presence to living in the visible glory of God. Grace comes in. Glory comes out. Good things follow. This message will stir your faith, reshape what you believe, and call you into a life of unveiled freedom and transformation. In This Message, You’ll Discover: • Why the glory of God is seen, not just felt (Exodus 33:18) • How God’s glory fills, protects, and transforms every area of your life (Isaiah 60:1; Haggai 2:7; 2 Corinthians 3:18) • Why belief, not emotion, is the gateway to seeing God’s glory (John 11:40; Mark 9:23) • What the veil represents and how turning to Jesus removes it (2 Corinthians 3:16–17) • The difference between temporary encounters and a permanent, glory-filled relationship with Christ • How 2026 becomes the year you and your house go from glory to glory If you’re ready to stop living behind the veil and start walking in visible, undeniable faith, this message is for you.

In this episode, Pastor Sam unpacks what it means to confess God’s promises with faith, explaining how what we speak shapes what we see, aligning biblical truth with scientific insight. This message calls believers to arise and shine, to walk protected by the armor of God, and to live boldly under the covering of Christ. This is a declaration that 2026 will not be a year of defeat, fear, or despair, but a year of grace, second chances, healing, restoration, and forward momentum. Grace that forgives and sustains. Glory that transforms us from glory to glory. And good things that come from the Father, through the Son, and by the Holy Spirit. This episode is a call to step confidently into the throne of grace, to stop begging and start believing, and to live as sons and daughters of God, covered, empowered, and destined for His glory. 2026 is the year of grace, glory, and good things.

In this podcast, Pastor Sam reminds us of a powerful truth: you’re still here because God isn’t finished with you. What the enemy meant to take you out didn’t work. What should’ve stopped you didn’t stop you. And what tried to silence your praise only made it stronger. As we close out 2025, Pastor Sam declares that we’re not just looking at God’s promises — we’re stepping into them. New doors are opening. New territory is being taken. And God’s plan over your life cannot be denied. This message is a call to remember where God brought you from, recognize what He preserved you through, and step forward with praise into what’s next. From glory to glory, we’re moving ahead. 2026 — it’s time to step in.

In this episode, Pastor Sam unpacks the prophetic weight of Isaiah 9:6 and the name El Gibbor, revealing that Jesus is not symbolically strong or becoming mighty. He is Mighty God by nature. From the womb to the cross to the empty tomb, Christ has always been victorious. This message reminds us that when our strength runs out, God steps in and fights for us. As Scripture declares, “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still” (Exodus 14:14), and “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31). Jesus rules over every power and authority, for “all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me” (Matthew 28:18), and nothing is too hard for our God (Jeremiah 32:17). Pastor Sam also teaches that God’s might is redemptive, not just destructive. “The Lord your God is in your midst, a Mighty One who will save” (Zephaniah 3:17). At the cross, Jesus disarmed every power and defeated the enemy once and for all (Colossians 2:15). The cross did not weaken Him. It revealed Him.

Isaiah 9:6 declares Jesus as our Wonderful Counselor, and in this message Pastor Samuel Rodriguez reveals why God begins with counsel before power, peace, or might. The voices we listen to shape the lives we live, and Pastor Sam calls us to return to the voice that leads us into truth and purpose. In this episode you will learn: • Why “Wonderful Counselor” is the first prophetic title given to Jesus • How the advice you receive determines the life you lead • Why God asks “Where are you?” instead of “How are you?” • How wrong voices lead to confusion, delay, and spiritual detours • The difference between worldly counsel and the counsel of the Holy Spirit • What it means to live in Him—in His presence, promises, and finished work • Why 2026 must become a year of ordering, not wandering • How God restores, guides, and aligns your steps when you listen to His voice Key Scriptures: Isaiah 9:6, Proverbs 19:20, John 10:27, Psalm 23, Isaiah 30:21, Colossians 3:3, Psalm 91:1, Proverbs 3 Step into a deeper understanding of the Counselor who guides, heals, restores, and orders your path. Let this word reposition your heart and reset your hearing for the new year.

In this prophetic and hope-filled episode, Pastor Sam opens Psalm 103:3–5 and reveals the power of the “Holy He” who defines your next season. These three verses capture the Gospel in a nutshell: He forgives all your sins, He heals all your diseases, He redeems your life from the pit, He crowns you with love and tender mercy, and He fills your life with good things. Drawing from Acts 10:43, Ephesians 1:7, Colossians 1:13, Romans 8:1, 1 Peter 2:24, Psalm 84:11, Isaiah 40:31, and Jeremiah 29:11, Pastor Sam declares that if your past is forgiven, then your healing, your clarity, your strength, and your breakthrough are next. This message calls you to step into a new season—not just a new year—with renewed identity, restored joy, and the soaring strength of the eagle. Get ready to rise above the storm, walk in God’s full redemption, and see good things come your way as you enter the season He prepared for you.

In this powerful message from Jonah 2:9–10, Pastor Sam reveals the supernatural impact of thanksgiving offered before anything changes. Jonah didn’t wait for daylight or deliverance—he praised God in the darkness, and heaven responded. This teaching unfolds three life-shifting truths: 1. Thanksgiving shifts the atmosphere before the circumstance changes. Jonah’s environment stayed the same, but his spirit shifted. Gratitude is not a reaction—it’s a revelation of faith. 2. Thanksgiving activates God’s command over your situation. “Then the Lord ordered the fish…” (Jonah 2:10). Jonah praised, and God spoke. Thanksgiving triggers divine intervention. 3. Thanksgiving turns what swallowed you into what propels you. The very thing that tried to bury Jonah became the vehicle that launched him into purpose. Praise still carries that power today. With references to Psalm 100:4, Philippians 4:6–7, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, and Habakkuk 3:17–18, this message reminds us that gratitude is a weapon, a garment, and the key that unlocks God’s favor.

In this transformative message, Pastor Sam reveals a powerful truth: in Christ, you are already “there” vertically — saved, forgiven, and rooted in God’s promise — but many of us are only inches away from stepping into what God has prepared for us horizontally in our everyday lives. Through the stories of Noah, Joshua, and Lot’s wife, you’ll discover how to finish the year with clarity, faith, and spiritual alignment. Learn how to: • Spend time with the Holy Spirit • Declare God’s promises again • Refuse to be defined by your past • Cross into what God designed specifically for this season If storms, distractions, or unexpected battles tried to derail you, this message reminds you that your enemies drown in your breakthrough, your momentum is not lost, and there is still time for every promise God ordained for you and your family to come to pass.

There are some storms you weren’t supposed to avoid—you were designed to outlast them. In Mark 4, the storm tried to drown them. In Mark 5, deliverance, freedom, healing, identity, and generational restoration broke loose. The same is true for you. If you survived the storm, there is deliverance on the other side. Your chains are already broken. Freedom isn’t coming—it’s here. And what God heals in you doesn’t stop with you. When the bleeding stops in your life, the breathing begins in your family, your home, and your future. This message will remind you: You are free from what tried to break you. You are free to step into purpose, peace, and glory. You don’t have to wait for a breakthrough—your faith can activate it. You survived the storm. Now watch what God releases next.

From Famine to Eternal Legacy: The Ruth Revelation – Reaping Redemption in the Fields of Grace Description: In this revelatory teaching, Pastor Sam walks us through the prophetic layers in the story of Ruth—highlighting a divine pattern of redemption, transformation, and destiny. From famine to fullness, from loss to legacy, this message is a declaration that your past can’t cancel your purpose. Through the lens of Ruth 2–3, Pastor Sam unpacks three foundational biblical doctrines that shape every believer’s journey: Main Points: Justification – From Leftovers to Overflow (Galatians 2:16, John 4:38, Romans 5:1) You’re reaping what Jesus sowed. What began as survival in the fields has turned into supernatural provision. You're justified by faith—no longer picking up scraps but carrying bundles of blessing. Sanctification – From Process to Promise (1 Thessalonians 5:23, Titus 3:5, Isaiah 61:10) Naomi told Ruth: wash, perfume, and dress—because proximity to Boaz required preparation. Likewise, God is preparing you in private for what He’s about to bless in public. Submission – From Humility to Destiny (Ruth 3:9, 1 Peter 5:6, James 4:10) Ruth lay at Boaz’s feet and asked to be covered. Your posture determines your portion. When you surrender at the feet of Jesus, you receive full covering—spiritually, emotionally, generationally. Whether you’re coming out of Moab or already on your way back to Judah, this message is your reminder: You are justified. You are sanctified. You are covered. And your legacy is secure in the hands of your Redeemer. Scripture Focus: Ruth 2–3, Galatians 2:16, John 4:38, Romans 5:1, Deuteronomy 6:10–11, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, Titus 3:5, Isaiah 61:10, 1 Peter 5:6 Listen now and step into your divine harvest.

Podcast Title: The Comeback Covenant — Faith in the Famine, Provision in My Praise Episode Description: In this dynamic message from Pastor Samuel Rodriguez, discover how to praise your way through famine and hold on to faith when everything around you feels empty. Part of The Comeback Covenant series, this teaching dives into Ruth 1 and uncovers the deeper meaning behind Bethlehem (house of bread) and Judah (praise). Pastor Sam declares a prophetic truth for this generation: Your provision is in your praise. Even when the bread seems gone, the Bread of Life never runs out. Don’t flee from your calling. Don’t abandon your place of promise. Stay rooted in faith — because God still reigns, and your joy is still intact. In this episode, you’ll be reminded that: Faith must be greater than the famine Praise precedes provision God’s sovereignty is your sanity Joy is a covenant gift — not a fleeting feeling This message from Pastor Sam will encourage you to stay planted, stay in praise, and trust that your comeback begins in the very place you thought about leaving. Your name is Sweet Joy — and your God is still King.

In a world that labels conviction as extremism and strength as oppression, Pastor Samuel Rodriguez delivers a prophetic call to arms for men to rise—not in toxic aggression, but in holy authority. Dangerous Men reclaims masculinity not as a threat, but as a vital force for good: bold, sacrificial, protective, and Spirit-filled. From Joshua’s unwavering declaration to Gideon’s altar confrontation, from Joseph’s quiet obedience to the cultural hunger of Gen Z—this message ignites a movement of men who are dangerous to hell, indispensable to heaven, and unshakable on Earth. Pastor Sam outlines three marks of a dangerous man: He leads with conviction, not comfort. He tears down the altars of generational compromise. He obeys the voice of the Father over public opinion. This isn't about macho pride. It's about men who pray like priests and fight like warriors. Men who protect their homes, speak truth in love, and fear God more than culture. The kind of men who terrify the devil and anchor their families in righteousness. If you’re ready to trade passivity for purpose and comfort for conviction—this episode is your altar call.

This episode reveals the spiritual dynamics at play when we choose to wait in faith. Pastor Sam explores: The prophetic weight of waiting in the right place Why your circle matters while you wait The role of spiritual order before divine overflow How heaven deploys angels during your waiting season And why celebrating others' breakthroughs is the key to unlocking your own Waiting is never meant to be lonely. It is an invitation to deeper faith, stronger community, and spiritual alignment. When you wait well, you don't just survive the season—you soar through it with renewed strength and divine clarity.
